CAS 2167-39-7
:2-Methyloxetane
Description:
2-Methyloxetane, with the CAS number 2167-39-7, is a cyclic ether characterized by a four-membered ring structure containing an oxygen atom and a methyl substituent at the second carbon position. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a distinctive sweet odor. It is known for its relatively low boiling point and moderate solubility in water, making it more soluble in organic solvents. 2-Methyloxetane is flammable and should be handled with care, as it can pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Its chemical reactivity is influenced by the strain in the four-membered ring, which can lead to various reactions, including ring-opening polymerization. This compound is of interest in organic synthesis and materials science, particularly in the development of polymers and as a potential solvent or intermediate in chemical reactions. Safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and storage guidelines, as well as for information on potential hazards associated with exposure.
